Madagascar green pepper sauce

Recipe offered by the Borde culinary experts

INGREDIENTS (2 SERVINGS)

PREPARATION

  1. Drain the canned green peppercorns and lightly crush the berries using a pestle or the back of a spoon to release their aroma.
  2. In a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, until it becomes translucent and slightly golden.
  3. If using cognac, pour it into the pan to deglaze the shallot and flambé for a few seconds (or allow it to reduce if you prefer not to flambé).
  4. Add the crushed green pepper to the pan and mix well. Next, pour in the beef stock and allow it to reduce slightly over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  5. Lower the heat and pour the liquid cream into the pan. Stir well to create a smooth and homogenous sauce. Let it simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens at your convenience.
  6. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt according to your preference.
  7. Serve this creamy green pepper sauce over a steak, filet mignon, veal escalopes, or even grilled vegetables to add a gourmet touch to your dishes.
